Answer:

$500

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the original price of the camera through a proportion. A proportion is an equation where two ratios or fractions are equal. The ratios or fractions compare like quantities.

<u>Second Discoun</u>t

20% off means we paid 80%. We know we paid $328 of some price.

\frac{80}{100} =\frac{328}{y} \\

I can now cross-multiply by multiplying numerator and denominator from each ratio.

80y=100(328)\\80y=32800

I now solve for y by dividing by 80.

\frac{80y}{80} =\frac{32800}{80}

y=410

The price after the first discount was $410.

<u>First Discount</u>

We will repeat the steps above with $410. 18% off means we paid 82%.

\frac{82}{100}=\frac{410}{y}

I can now cross-multiply by multiplying numerator and denominator from each ratio.

82y=100(410)\\82y=41000

I now solve for y by dividing by 82.

\frac{82y}{82} =\frac{41000}{82}

y=500

The original price was $500.

A cylinder has a height of 7cm.
valina [46]

We first need to find the radius of the circle, so we need to do 8π/π which gives us a diameter of 8 cm, halving this gives us a radius of 4 cm.

The area of this circle will be:

A = πr^2

A = 4^2

A = 16π cm^2

Now to find the volume we simply multiply the area by the height:

16π × 7 = 112π cm^3 which is our final answer.

Answer: For a translation, you need a distance and a direction.

For a rotation, you need a point that is the center of the rotation and the degree (and sometimes direction) of rotation.

For reflection you need the axis or a defined line that the triangle is reflected across.

Last Friday Cicely had $22.50. Over the weekend she received some money for
Bumek [7]

Answer:

It should be $32 - $22.50.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because we're trying to find out the amount she received. So we will subtract the amount she already has from how much she now has to figure out how much she received. 32 - 22.50 = 9.50.

Hope this helps:)!
